Waterfront Pool in Lighthouse Point Designed for Family Memories

This waterfront pool in Lighthouse Point was designed for a young family to enjoy for years to come. As a Lighthouse Point pool builder, we shaped a clean, modern layout around the property’s waterfront setting, creating a seamless connection between the pool and the surrounding outdoor space. The result is a sophisticated rectangular design with a raised wall section that adds architectural interest and helps define separate zones for swimming and lounging, all while keeping the overall look streamlined and uncluttered.

A spacious shallow sun shelf anchors the family-friendly side of the design, giving younger children a comfortable, safe area to play in the water while parents relax nearby — whether that’s during quiet weekday afternoons or larger family gatherings and summer celebrations. The pool features a PebbleTec® French Gray finish, chosen specifically for the way it renders the water: a natural, deep blue tone with a soft, sophisticated undertone that complements the waterfront setting rather than competing with it. Unlike standard plaster finishes, PebbleTec also holds up well to the sun exposure and heavy use that come with true four-season pool living in South Florida.

Every detail in this project, from the finish selection to the placement of the sun shelf and raised wall, was chosen with three things in mind: modern style, everyday functionality for a young family, and the relaxed outdoor lifestyle that draws people to Lighthouse Point in the first place. It’s a good example of how a fairly simple, clean footprint can still deliver a lot of variety in how a family actually uses their backyard — from morning swims to evening entertaining.
